Don’t walk into a legal trap. Join Bob King (employment law and wage and hour attorney) and Ruby Mehta (home care operations leader) for a hard-hitting session that exposes where agencies stumble on pay issues — and how to get ahead.
This is for agency owners, operations leads, and HR leads who prefer concrete fixes over vague guidance. No fluff — just tools you can apply right away to limit your exposure when it comes to wages, hours, and classification.
You’ll leave knowing where others trip up (and how to avoid it) — with confidence, not panic.
On-call pay, overtime missteps, rest break violations, travel time, missed meal breaks, minimum wage shortfalls, rounding abuses, off-the-clock work — plus how these issues often compound in the home care setting.
How misclassification leads to risk, and what “safe practices” look like in California’s home care environment (without getting bogged in contract law).
When bonuses or travel stipends trigger overtime calculations, or get double-counted (or never counted). Broken down into easy formulas so you can audit your own practices.
Stories from PAGA lawsuits, class claims, and administrative actions — how agencies bled on pay mistakes, and what red flags you should watch in your own pay systems.
Step-by-step checklist for auditing pay practices, standardizing documentation (timekeeping, approvals, adjustments), training supervisors, and triggering internal alerts when red flags appear.
How to respond to wage complaints or demand letters emphasizing pay issues; how to assess whether an audit in that area is meritless — or very real.
